  I'm not sure why you had to patch the generator.py , could you explain
a bit ? Also I don't see in the patch any extra entry in 
python/libvirt-python-api.xml , its purpose is to help the generator
writing the python side of the bindings for hand generated ones. So i 
wonder if the two are not related.
